Justified Black Eye by Simple Plan
Justified Black Eye
This song needs a capo 7.
If you prefer, I think doing the C#m chord will be more comfortable like this, since it's
so high up on the fretboard:
___________
| | | | | | 4th fret
| | | | | 1
| | | | 2 |
| | | 3 | |
| | | | | |
I'm not that good at marking the strum pattern, but it should be something like this:
Just the beginning of the song:
Em C Em G
----↓↑--↑↓↑--↑↓↑--↑↓↑--↑↓↑--↑↓↑--↑↓↑--↑↓↑--
The rest of the song:
Em C Em G

Justified Black Eye (A Tribute to Tony Sly) - Simple Plan
Em C Em G
Em C Em G
Em C Em G
She was confused and abused in this life
Em C
Emotional and violent moments
Em G
Seemed to take the longest time
Em C Em G
Every single knockout, drag-out fight they ever had
Em C
He starts to laugh, he starts to lie
Em G
With suddenly psychotic eyes
C#m G Em Em
Every night she cried herself to sleep, she didn't recognize
C#m G Em Em
Her own face in the mirror black and blue
C#m G Em Em
So afraid, intimidation, like a child she hides away
C#m G Em Em
He would always try to justify - what wasn't true
C Em G
O-oh
Em C Em G
Justified black eye
Em C Em G
Taken for granted, she sleeps by the phone
Em C
Waiting for a call from him
Em G
But it seems he's never comin' home
Em C Em G
14 beers later, he is there without an answer
Em C
Once again, she questions his lies
Em G
He goes to bed with no reply
C#m G
Tomorrow morning, different story
Em Em
And he'll be a different guy
C#m G Em Em
He'll justify her black eye with another lie
C#m G Em Em
She packs her bags in great temptation, he's on his knees again he cries
C#m G
A hug-and-a-kiss and I don't know why
Em Em
As a tear drops from her swollen eye
Em
Apologies until tonight and, then another - justified black eye
Em C C#m G
O-oh
Em C C#m G
Justified black eye
Em C C#m G
Justified black eye
(Either C#m or G works fine by my ear, I couldn't figure out which one it was at the end.)
